Unity Bancorp, Inc.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 30, 2011
NOTE 1. Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Unity Bancorp, Inc. (the "Parent Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Unity Bank (the "Bank" or when consolidated with the Parent Company, the "Company"), and reflect all adjustments and disclosures which are generally routine and recurring in nature, and in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of interim results. Unity Investment Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank, is used to hold part of the Bank’s investment portfolio. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current year presentation, with no impact on current earnings. The financial information has been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and has not been audited. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure through the date the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were issued.
Estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of deferred income tax assets and the fair value of financial instruments. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year. As used in this Form 10-Q, “we” and “us” and “our” refer to Unity Bancorp, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiary, Unity Bank, depending on the context. Certain information and financial disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted from interim reporting pursuant to SEC rules. Interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Subsequent Events
During the quarter, the Company decided to close two of its underperforming branches. The Colonia, NJ branch will be closed on or about July 22, 2011. The Springfield, NJ branch will be closed on or about September 23, 2011. As a result of this decision, $215 thousand in residual lease and fixed asset disposal expenses were realized in the second quarter.
Stock Transactions
The Company has incentive and nonqualified option plans, which allow for the grant of options to officers, employees and members of the Board of Directors. In addition, restricted stock is issued under the stock bonus program to reward employees and directors and to retain them by distributing stock over a period of time.
Stock Option Plans
Grants under the Company’s incentive and nonqualified option plans generally vest over 3 years and must be exercised within 10 years of the date of grant. The exercise price of each option is the market price on the date of grant. As of June 30, 2011, 1,720,529 shares have been reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options, 584,388 option grants are outstanding, and 955,482 option grants have been exercised, forfeited or expired, leaving 180,659 shares available for grant.
The Company granted 67,000 options in 2011 as compared to no options in 2010. The fair value of the options granted in 2011 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

The expected life of the options was estimated based on historical employee behavior and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Expected volatility of the Company’s stock price was based on the historical volatility over the period commensurate with the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate is the U.S. Treasury rate commensurate with the expected life of the options on the date of grant. The expected dividend yield is the projected annual yield based on the grant date stock price.
Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("FASB ASC") Topic 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” requires an entity to recognize the fair value of equity awards as compensation expense over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for such an award (vesting period). Compensation expense related to stock options totaled $26 thousand and $31 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The related income tax benefit was approximately $9 thousand and $12 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Compensation expense related to stock options totaled $46 thousand and $83 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The related income tax benefit was approximately $17 thousand and $33 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As of June 30, 2011, unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company’s stock option plans totaled approximately $277 thousand. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.5 years.
Transactions under the Company’s stock option plans for the six months ended June 30, 2011 are summarized in the following table:

Income Taxes
The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a threshold for the financial statement recognition of income taxes and provides criteria for the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also includes guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition of income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates applicable to taxable income for the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation reserves are established against certain deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Increases or decreases in the valuation reserve are charged or credited to the income tax provision.
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that ultimately would be sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. The evaluation of a tax position taken is considered by itself and not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.
Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in income tax expense on the income statement.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company uses derivative instruments, such as interest rate swaps, to manage interest rate risk. The Company recognizes all derivative instruments at fair value as either assets or liabilities in other assets or other liabilities. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship. For derivatives not designated as an accounting hedge, the gain or loss is recognized in trading noninterest income. As of June 30, 2011, all of the Company's derivative instruments qualified as hedging instruments.
For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, the Company must designate the hedging instrument, based on the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, a cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. The Company does not have any fair value hedges or hedges of foreign operations.
The Company formally documents the relationship between the hedging instruments and hedged item, as well as the risk management objective and strategy before undertaking a hedge. To qualify for hedge accounting, the derivatives and hedged items must be designated as a hedge. For hedging relationships in which effectiveness is measured, the Company formally assesses, both at inception and on an ongoing basis, if the derivatives are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged item. If it is determined that the derivative instrument is not highly effective as a hedge, hedge accounting is discontinued.
For derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on derivatives is reported as a component of other comprehensive income or loss and subsequently reclassified in interest income in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. As a result, the change in fair value of any ineffective portion of the hedging derivative is recognized immediately in earnings.
The Company will discontinue hedge accounting when it is determined that the derivative is no longer qualifying as an effective hedge; the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised; or the derivative is de-designated as a fair value or cash flow hedge or it is no longer probable that the forecasted transaction will occur by the end of the originally specified time period. If the Company determines that the derivative no longer qualifies as a cash flow or fair value hedge and therefore hedge accounting is discontinued, the derivative will continue to be recorded on the balance sheet at its fair value with changes in fair value included in current earnings.
Loans Held To Maturity and Loans Held For Sale
Loans held to maturity are stated at the unpaid principal balance, net of unearned discounts and net of deferred loan origination fees and costs. Loan origination fees, net of direct loan origination costs, are deferred and are recognized over the estimated life of the related loans as an adjustment to the loan yield utilizing the level yield method.
Interest is credited to operations primarily based upon the principal amount outstanding. When management believes there is sufficient doubt as to the ultimate ability to collect interest on a loan, interest accruals are discontinued and all past due interest, previously recognized as income, is reversed and charged against current period earnings. Payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied as principal. Loans are returned to an accrual status when the ability to collect is reasonably assured and when the loan is brought current as to principal and interest.
Loans are reported as past due when either interest or principal is unpaid in the following circumstances: fixed payment loans when the borrower is in arrears for two or more monthly payments; open end credit for two or more billing cycles; and single payment notes if interest or principal remains unpaid for 30 days or more.
Loans are charged off when collection is sufficiently questionable and when the Company can no longer justify maintaining the loan as an asset on the balance sheet. Loans qualify for charge-off when, after thorough analysis, all possible sources of repayment are insufficient. These include: 1) potential future cash flows, 2) value of collateral, and/or 3) strength of co-makers and guarantors. All unsecured loans are charged off upon the establishment of the loan’s nonaccrual status. Additionally, all loans classified as a loss or that portion of the loan classified as a loss are charged off. All loan charge-offs are approved by the Board of Directors.
Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest (nonaccrual loans) as a result of principal or interest being in default for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt. When a loan is classified as nonaccrual, interest accruals discontinue and all past due interest previously recognized as income is reversed and charged against current period income. Generally, until the loan becomes current, any payments received from the borrower are applied to outstanding principal until such time as management determines that the financial condition of the borrower and other factors merit recognition of a portion of such payments as interest income.
The Company evaluates its loans for impairment. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company has defined impaired loans to be all troubled debt restructurings and nonperforming loans. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of a similar nature (consumer and residential mortgage loans), and on an individual basis for other loans. Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") occur when a creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to a debtor’s financial condition, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider, such as a below market interest rate. Interest income on accruing TDRs is credited to operations primarily based upon the principal amount outstanding, as stated in the paragraphs above. Impairment of a loan is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate. Impairment can also be measured based on a loan’s observable market price or the fair value of collateral, net of estimated costs to sell, if the loan is collateral dependent. If the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the Company establishes a valuation allowance, or adjusts existing valuation allowances, with a corresponding charge or credit to the provision for loan losses.
Loans held for sale are SBA loans and are reflected at the lower of aggregate cost or market value. The net amount of loan origination fees on loans sold is included in the carrying value and in the gain or loss on the sale.
The Company originates loans to customers under an SBA program that generally provides for SBA guarantees of up to 90 percent of each loan. The Company generally sells the guaranteed portion of its SBA loans to a third party and retains the servicing, holding the nonguaranteed portion in its portfolio. During late 2008, the Company withdrew from SBA lending outside of its primary trade area, but continues to offer SBA loan products as an additional credit product within its primary trade area. If sales of SBA loans do occur, the premium received on the sale and the present value of future cash flows of the servicing assets are recognized in income.
Serviced loans sold to others are not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Income and fees collected for loan servicing are credited to noninterest income when earned, net of amortization on the related servicing assets.
For additional information see the section titled "Loan Portfolio" under Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis.
Allowance for Loan Losses and Unfunded Loan Commitments
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level management considers adequate to provide for probable loan losses as of the balance sheet date. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense and is reduced by net charge-offs.
The level of the allowance is based on management’s evaluation of probable losses in the loan portfolio, after consideration of prevailing economic conditions in the Company’s market area, the volume and composition of the loan portfolio, and historical loan loss experience. The allowance for loan losses consists of specific reserves for individually impaired credits and troubled debt restructurings, reserves for nonimpaired loans based on historical loss factors and reserves based on general economic factors and other qualitative risk factors such as changes in delinquency trends, industry concentrations or local/national economic trends. This risk assessment process is performed at least quarterly, and, as adjustments become necessary, they are realized in the periods in which they become known.
Although management attempts to maintain the allowance at a level deemed adequate to provide for probable losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based upon certain factors including changes in market conditions and underlying collateral values. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require the Company to make additional provisions based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.
The Company maintains an allowance for unfunded loan commitments that is maintained at a level that management believes is adequate to absorb estimated probable losses. Adjustments to the allowance are made through other expenses and applied to the allowance which is maintained in other liabilities.
For additional information, see the sections titled "Asset Quality" and "Allowance for Loan Losses and Unfunded Loan Commitments" under Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis.
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment
The Company has a process in place to identify debt securities that could potentially incur credit impairment that is other-than-temporary. This process involves monitoring late payments, pricing levels, downgrades by rating agencies, key financial ratios, financial statements, revenue forecasts and cash flow projections as indicators of credit issues. Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concern warrants such evaluation. This evaluation considers relevant facts and circumstances in evaluating whether a credit or interest rate-related impairment of a security is other-than-temporary. Relevant facts and circumstances considered include: (1) the extent and length of time the fair value has been below cost; (2) the reasons for the decline in value; (3) the financial position and access to capital of the issuer, including the current and future impact of any specific events and (4) for fixed maturity securities, our intent to sell a security or whether it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost which, in some cases, may extend to maturity and for equity securities, our ability and intent to hold the security for a forecasted period of time that allows for the recovery in value.
Management assesses its intent to sell or whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell a security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit losses. For debt securities that are considered other-than-temporarily impaired with no intent to sell and no requirement to sell prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, the amount of the impairment is separated into the amount that is credit related (credit loss component) and the amount due to all other factors. The credit loss component is recognized in earnings and is the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and the present value of its expected future cash flows. The remaining difference between the security’s fair value and the present value of future expected cash flows is due to factors that are not credit related and is recognized in other comprehensive income.
The present value of expected future cash flows is determined using the best estimate cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate implicit to the security at the date of purchase or the current yield to accrete an asset-backed or floating rate security. The methodology and assumptions for establishing the best estimate cash flows vary depending on the type of security. The asset-backed securities cash flow estimates are based on bond specific facts and circumstances that may include collateral characteristics, expectations of delinquency and default rates, loss severity and prepayment speeds and structural support, including subordination and guarantees. The corporate bond cash flow estimates are derived from scenario-based outcomes of expected corporate restructurings or the disposition of assets using bond specific facts and circumstances including timing, security interests and loss severity.
NOTE 2. Litigation
From time to time, the Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. The Company currently is not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that it believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, or the results of operations of the Company.
NOTE 3. Net Income per Share
Basic net income per common share is calculated as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Net income available to common shareholders is calculated as net income less accrued dividends and discount accretion related to preferred stock.
Diluted net income per common share is computed similarly to that of basic net income per common share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common shares, principally stock options and warrants, were issued during the reporting period utilizing the Treasury stock method. However, when a net loss rather than net income is recognized, diluted earnings per share equals basic earnings per share.
The following is a reconciliation of the calculation of basic and diluted income per share.

ASC 740 also includes guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition of income taxes.
The Company did not recognize or accrue any interest or penalties related to income taxes during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The Company does not have an accrual for uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2011 or December 31, 2010, as deductions taken and benefits accrued are based on widely understood administrative practices and procedures and are based on clear and unambiguous tax law. Tax returns for all years 2007 and thereafter are subject to future examination by tax authorities.

NOTE 6. Fair Value
Fair Value Measurement
The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures,” which requires additional disclosures about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based on the observability of the inputs used in valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed as follows:
Level 1 Inputs
·
|
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
|
·
|
Generally, this includes debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market (i.e. New York Stock Exchange), as well as certain U.S. Treasury, U.S. Government and sponsored entity agency mortgage-backed securities that are highly liquid and are actively traded in over-the-counter markets.
|
Level 2 Inputs
·
|
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.
|
·
|
Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets.
|
·
|
Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for the term of the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, credit risks, prepayment speeds or volatilities) or “market corroborated inputs.”
|
·
|
Generally, this includes U.S. Government and sponsored entity mortgage-backed securities, corporate debt securities and derivative contracts.
|
Level 3 Inputs
·
|
Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable (i.e. supported by little or no market activity) and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
|
·
|
These assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
|
Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Securities Available for Sale
The fair value of available for sale ("AFS") securities is the market value based on quoted market prices, when available, or market prices provided by recognized broker dealers (Level 1). If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon quoted market prices for similar or identical assets or other observable inputs (Level 2) or externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument (Level 3).
As of June 30, 2011, the fair value of the Company's AFS securities portfolio was $101.9 million. Approximately 75 percent of the portfolio was made up of residential mortgage-backed securities, which had a fair value of $76.0 million at June 30, 2011. Approximately $72.7 million of the residential mortgage-backed securities are guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA"), the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC"). The underlying loans for these securities are residential mortgages that are geographically dispersed throughout the United States. All AFS securities were classified as Level 2 assets at June 30, 2011. The valuation of AFS securities using Level 2 inputs was primarily determined using the market approach, which uses quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and all other relevant information. It includes model pricing, defined as valuing securities based upon their relationship with other benchmark securities.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
Based on the complex nature of interest rate swap agreements, the markets these instruments trade in are not as efficient and are less liquid than that of Level 1 markets. These markets do, however, have comparable, observable inputs in which an alternative pricing source values these assets or liabilities in order to arrive at a fair value. The fair values of our interest swaps are measured based on the difference between the yield on the existing swaps and the yield on current swaps in the market (i.e. The Yield Book); consequently, they are classified as Level 2 instruments.
There were no changes in the inputs or methodologies used to determine fair value during the period ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the period ended December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010. The tables below present the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Certain assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:
Other Real Estate Owned ("OREO")
The fair value was determined using appraisals, which may be discounted based on management’s review and changes in market conditions (Level 3 Inputs).
Impaired Collateral-Dependent Loans
The fair value of impaired collateral-dependent loans is derived in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 310, “Receivables.” Fair value is determined based on the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral. The valuation allowance for impaired loans is included in the allowance for loan losses in the consolidated balance sheets. At June 30, 2011, the valuation allowance for impaired loans was $3.9 million, an increase of $1.4 million from $2.5 million at December 31, 2010.
The following table presents the assets and liabilities carried on the balance sheet by caption and by level within the hierarchy (as described above) as of June 30, 2011:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires the disclosure of the estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including those financial instruments for which the Company did not elect the fair value option. These estimated fair values as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 have been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop estimates of fair value. The estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of alternative market assumptions and estimation methodologies could have had a material effect on these estimates of fair value. The methodology for estimating the fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis are discussed above. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of other financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For these short-term instruments, the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Loans
The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current market rates that reflect the interest rate risk inherent in the loan, except for previously discussed impaired loans.
SBA loans held for sale
The fair value of SBA loans held for sale is estimated by using a market approach that includes significant other observable inputs.
Federal Home Loan Bank Stock
Federal Home Loan Bank stock is carried at cost. Carrying value approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the issues.
Deposit Liabilities
The fair value of demand deposits and savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current market rates.
Borrowed Funds & Subordinated Debentures
The fair value of borrowings is estimated by discounting the projected future cash flows using current market rates.
Accrued Interest
The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.
Standby Letters of Credit
At June 30, 2011, the Bank had standby letters of credit outstanding of $2.0 million, as compared to $1.5 million at December 31, 2010. The fair value of these commitments is nominal.

This table provides the remaining contractual maturities and yields of securities within the investment portfolios. The carrying value of securities at June 30, 2011 is primarily distributed by contractual maturity. Mortgage-backed securities and other securities, which may have principal prepayment provisions, are distributed based on contractual maturity. Expected maturities will differ materially from contractual maturities as a result of early prepayments and calls. The total weighted average yield excludes equity securities.

Unrealized Losses
The unrealized losses in each of the categories presented in the tables above are discussed in the paragraphs that follow:
U.S. Government sponsored entities and state and political subdivision securities: The unrealized losses on investments in this type of security were caused by the increase in interest rate spreads. The contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the par value of the investment. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2011.
Residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities: The unrealized losses on investments in mortgage-backed securities were caused by interest rate increases. The majority of contractual cash flows of these securities are guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. It is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price significantly less than the par value of the investment. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be at maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2011.
Trust preferred securities: The unrealized losses on trust preferred securities were caused by an inactive trading market and changes in market credit spreads. At June 30, 2011, this category consisted of one single-issuer trust preferred security. The issuer of the trust preferred security is considered a well capitalized institution per regulatory standards and significantly strengthened its capital position. In addition, the issuer has ample liquidity, bolstered its allowance for loan losses, was profitable in 2010 and is projected to be profitable in 2011. The contractual terms do not allow the security to be settled at a price less than the par value. Because the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity, the Company does not consider this security to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2011.
Other securities: Included in this category is stock of other financial institutions and Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) investments. The unrealized losses on other securities are caused by decreases in the market prices of the shares. The Company has evaluated the prospects of the issuer and has forecasted a recovery period; therefore these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2011.

The net realized gains and losses are included in noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as net securities gains. For the three months ended June 30, 2011 there were gross realized gains of $41 thousand and gross realized losses of $80 thousand, while there were gross realized gains of $4 thousand and no losses during this period in 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, gross realized gains on sales of securities amounted to $168 thousand and $248 thousand, respectively, and gross realized losses were $81 thousand and $240 thousand, respectively.
The gross gains during the six months ending June 30, 2011 are primarily attributed to the Company selling approximately $9.1 million in book value of mortgage-backed securities, resulting in pretax gains of approximately $168 thousand. These gains were partially offset by losses of $13 thousand on the sale of approximately $1 million in book value of five available for sale mortgage-backed securities and losses of $68 thousand on the sale of approximately $2.1 million in book value of three held to maturity private label mortgage backed securities. Although designated as held to maturity, these securities were sold due to the deterioration in the underlying credit, as evidenced by downgrades in their credit ratings.
The gross gains of $248 thousand in the first six months of 2010 are primarily attributed to the Company selling approximately $6.4 million in book value of mortgage-backed securities, resulting in pretax gains of approximately $241 thousand on the sales and one called structured agency security with a resulting gain of $3 thousand and one called municipal security with a resulting gain of $4 thousand These gains were partially offset by losses of $150 thousand on the sale of two mortgage backed securities and losses of $90 thousand on the sale of five held to maturity tax-exempt municipal securities with a total book value of $2.0 million.
Pledged Securities
Securities with a carrying value of $73.8 million and $65.1 million at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, were pledged to secure Government deposits, secure other borrowings and for other purposes required or permitted by law. Included in these figures was $21.5 million and $3 million pledged against Government deposits at June 30, 2011 and 2010.
Note 8.Allowance for Loan Losses & Unfunded Loan Commitments
Management reviews the level of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis. The standardized methodology used to assess the adequacy of the allowance includes the allocation of specific and general reserves. The same standard methodology is used, regardless of loan type. Specific reserves are made to individual impaired loans and troubled debt restructurings, (see Note 1 for additional information on this term). The general reserve is set based upon a representative average historical net charge-off rate adjusted for certain environmental factors such as: delinquency and impairment trends, charge-off and recovery trends, volume and loan term trends, risk and underwriting policy trends, staffing and experience changes, national and local economic trends, industry conditions and credit concentration changes.
Beginning in the third quarter of 2009, when calculating the five-year historical net charge-off rate, the Company weights the past three years more heavily due to the higher amount of charge-offs experienced during those years. All of the environmental factors are ranked and assigned a basis points value based on the following scale: low, low moderate, moderate, high moderate, and high risk. The factors are evaluated separately for each type of loan. For example, commercial loans are broken down further into commercial loans, commercial real estate loans, and commercial construction loans. Each type of loan is risk weighted for each environmental factor based on its individual characteristics.
For SBA 7(a), SBA 504 and commercial loans, the estimate of loss based on pools of loans with similar characteristics is made through the use of a standardized loan grading system that is applied on an individual loan level and updated on a continuous basis. The loan grading system incorporates reviews of the financial performance of the borrower, including cash flow, debt-service coverage ratio, earnings power, debt level and equity position, in conjunction with an assessment of the borrower's industry and future prospects. It also incorporates analysis of the type of collateral and the relative loan to value ratio.
For residential mortgage and consumer loans, the estimate of loss is based on pools of loans with similar characteristics. Factors such as credit score, delinquency status and type of collateral are evaluated. Factors are updated frequently to capture the recent behavioral characteristics of the subject portfolios, as well as any changes in loss mitigation or credit origination strategies, and adjustments to the reserve factors are made as needed.
According to the Company’s policy, a loss (“charge-off”) is to be recognized and charged to the allowance for loan losses as soon as a loan is recognized as uncollectable. All credits which are 90 days past due must be analyzed for the Company’s ability to collect on the credit. Once a loss is known to exist, the charge-off approval process is immediately expedited. This charge-off policy is followed for all loan types.
An analysis of the change in the allowance for loan losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is presented in the table below. The allocated allowance is the total of identified specific and general reserves by loan category. The allocation is not necessarily indicative of the categories in which future losses may occur. The total allowance is available to absorb losses from any segment of the portfolio.

In addition to the allowance for loan losses, the Company maintains an allowance for unfunded loan commitments that is maintained at a level that management believes is adequate to absorb estimated probable losses. Adjustments to the allowance are made through other expense and applied to the allowance which is maintained in other liabilities. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, a $65 thousand commitment reserve was reported on the balance sheet as an “other liability”.
Credit Risk:
Loans are made to individuals as well as commercial entities. Specific loan terms vary as to interest rate, repayment, and collateral requirements based on the type of loan requested and the credit worthiness of the prospective borrower. Credit risk, excluding SBA loans, tends to be geographically concentrated in that a majority of the loan customers are located in the markets serviced by the Bank. As a preferred SBA lender, a portion of the SBA portfolio is to borrowers outside the Company’s lending area. However, during late 2008, the Company withdrew from SBA lending outside of its primary trade area, but continues to offer SBA loan products as an additional credit product within its primary trade area.
The Company's extension of credit is governed the Credit Risk Policy which was established to control the quality of the Company's loans. These policies and procedures are reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors on a regular basis.
SBA Loans . SBA loans, on which the SBA provides guarantees of up to 90 percent of the principal balance, are considered a higher risk loan product for the Company than its other loan products. The Company’s SBA loans are generally sold in the secondary market with the nonguaranteed portion held in the portfolio as a loan held for investment. SBA loans are for the purpose of providing working capital, financing the purchase of equipment, inventory or commercial real estate and for other business purposes. Loans are guaranteed by the businesses' major owners. SBA loans are made based primarily on the historical and projected cash flow of the business and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided.
SBA 504 Loans. The SBA 504 program consists of real estate backed commercial mortgages where the Company has the first mortgage and the SBA has the second mortgage on the property. SBA 504 loans, are made based primarily on the historical and projected cash flow of the business and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided. Generally, the Company has a 50 percent loan to value ratio on SBA 504 program loans. Loan performance may be adversely affected by factors impacting the general economy or conditions specific to the real estate market such as geographic location and/or property type.
Commercial Loans. Commercial credit is extended primarily to middle market and small business customers. Commercial loans are generally made in the Company’s market place for the purpose of providing working capital, financing the purchase of equipment, inventory or commercial real estate and for other business purposes. Loans will generally be guaranteed in full or for a meaningful amount by the businesses' major owners. Commercial loans are made based primarily on the historical and projected cash flow of the business and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided. Loan performance may be adversely affected by factors impacting the general economy or conditions specific to the real estate market such as geographic location and/or property type.
Mortgage and Consumer Loans. The Company originates mortgage and consumer loans including principally residential real estate and home equity lines and loans. Each loan type is evaluated on debt to income, type of collateral and loan to collateral value, credit history and Company relationship with the borrower.
Inherent in the lending function is credit risk, which is the possibility a borrower may not perform in accordance with the contractual terms of their loan. A borrower’s inability to pay their obligations according to the contractual terms can create the risk of past due loans and, ultimately, credit losses, especially on collateral deficient loans. The Company minimizes its credit risk by loan diversification and adhering to credit administration policies and procedures. Due diligence on loans begins when we initiate contact regarding a loan with a borrower. Documentation, including a borrower’s credit history, materials establishing the value and liquidity of potential collateral, the purpose of the loan, the source of funds for repayment of the loan, and other factors, are analyzed before a loan is submitted for approval. The loan portfolio is then subject to on-going internal reviews for credit quality, as well as independent credit reviews by an outside firm.
For SBA 7(a), SBA 504 and commercial loans, management uses internally assigned risk ratings as the best indicator of credit quality. A loan’s internal risk rating is updated at least annually and more frequently if circumstances warrant a change in risk rating. The Company uses a 1 through 10 loan grading system that follows regulatory accepted definitions.
·
|
Risk ratings of 1 through 6 are used for loans that are performing, as they meet, and are expected to continue to meet, all of the terms and conditions set forth in the original loan documentation, and are generally current on principal and interest payments. These performing loans are termed “Pass”.
|
·
|
Criticized loans are assigned a risk rating of 7 and termed “Special Mention”, as the borrowers exhibit potential credit weaknesses or downward trends deserving management’s close attention. If not checked or corrected, these trends will weaken the Bank’s collateral and position. While potentially weak, these borrowers are currently marginally acceptable and no loss of interest or principal is anticipated. As a result, special mention assets do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Included in “Special Mention” could be turnaround situations, such as borrowers with deteriorating trends beyond one year, borrowers in start up or deteriorating industries, or borrowers with a poor market share in an average industry. "Special Mention" loans may include an element of asset quality, financial flexibility, or management below average. Management and ownership may have limited depth or experience. Regulatory agencies have agreed on a consistent definition of “Special Mention” as an asset with potential weaknesses which, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Bank’s credit position at some future date. This definition is intended to ensure that the “Special Mention” category is not used to identify assets that have as their sole weakness credit data exceptions or collateral documentation exceptions that are not material to the repayment of the asset.
|
·
|
Classified loans are assigned a risk rating of an 8 or 9, depending upon the prospect for collection, and deemed “Substandard”. A risk rating of 8 is used for borrowers with well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly liquidation of debt. The loan is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Normal repayment from the borrower is in jeopardy, although no loss of principal is envisioned. There is a distinct possibility that a partial loss of interest and/or principal will occur if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified “Substandard”. A risk rating of 9 is used for borrowers that have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan with a risk rating of 8, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection of debt in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. Serious problems exist to the point where partial loss of principal is likely. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important, reasonably specific pending factors that may work to strengthen the assets, the loans’ classification as estimated losses is deferred until a more exact status may be determined. Pending factors include proposed merger, acquisition, or liquidation procedures; capital injection; perfecting liens on additional collateral; and refinancing plans. Partial charge-offs are likely.
|
·
|
Once a borrower is deemed incapable of repayment of unsecured debt, the risk rating becomes a 10, the loan is termed a “Loss”, and charged-off immediately. Loans to such borrowers are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as active assets of the Bank is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off these basically worthless assets even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.
|
For residential mortgage and consumer loans,management uses performing versus nonperforming as the best indicator of credit quality. Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest (nonaccrual loans) as a result of principal or interest being in default for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt. These credit quality indicators are updated on an ongoing basis, as a loan is placed on nonaccrual status as soon as management believes there is sufficient doubt as to the ultimate ability to collect interest on a loan.
The tables below detail the Company’s loans by class according to their credit quality indicators discussed in the paragraphs above as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Nonperforming and past due loans: Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest (nonaccrual loans) as a result of principal or interest being in default for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt. When a loan is classified as nonaccrual, interest accruals discontinue and all past due interest previously recognized as income is reversed and charged against current period income. Generally, until the loan becomes current, any payments received from the borrower are applied to outstanding principal, until such time as management determines that the financial condition of the borrower and other factors merit recognition of a portion of such payments as interest income. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest are not included in nonperforming loans. Loans past due 90 days or more generally represent loans that are well collateralized and in a continuing process that is expected to result in repayment or restoration to current status.
The risk of loss is difficult to quantify and is subject to fluctuations in collateral values, general economic conditions and other factors. The current state of the economy and the downturn in the real estate market have resulted in increased loan delinquencies and defaults. In some cases, these factors have also resulted in significant impairment to the value of loan collateral. The Company values its collateral through the use of appraisals, broker price opinions, and knowledge of its local market. In response to the credit risk in its portfolio, the Company has increased staffing in its credit monitoring department and increased efforts in the collection and analysis of borrowers’ financial statements and tax returns.
The following tables set forth an aging analysis of past due and nonaccrual loans as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Impaired Loans: The Company has defined impaired loans to be all nonperforming loans and troubled debt restructurings. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of a similar nature, (consumer and residential mortgage loans), and on an individual basis for other loans. Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) occur when a creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to a debtor’s financial condition, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider, such as a below market interest rate, extending the maturity of a loan, or a combination of both. At June 30, 2011, there were sixteen loans totaling $17.5 million that were classified as TDRs by the Company and are deemed impaired, compared to fifteen such loans totaling $14.1 million at December 31, 2010. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, there were seven loans totaling $9.0 million classified as TDRs, six loans totaling $3.1 million which were transferred to nonaccrual status and one decrease of $2.5 million due to a loan which was bought at sheriffs sale. TDRs are not included in the nonperforming or potential problem loan figures listed above, as they continue to perform under their modified terms.
The following tables provide detail on the Company’s impaired loans as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Note 9. New Accounting Pronouncements
ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This ASU will require companies to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income either as one continuous statement or as two consecutive statements. It eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. The standard does not change the items which must be reported in other comprehensive income, how such items are measured or when they must be reclassified to net income. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Because this ASU impacts presentation only, it will have no effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, which is intended to result in convergence between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) requirements for measurement of and disclosures about fair value. The amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on companies applying U.S. GAAP. Key provisions of the amendment include: a prohibition on grouping financial instruments for purposes of determining fair value, except when an entity manages market and credit risks on the basis of the entity’s net exposure to the group; an extension of the prohibition against the use of a blockage factor to all fair value measurements (that prohibition currently applies only to financial instruments with quoted prices in active markets); and a requirement that for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements, entities disclose quantitative information about unobservable inputs, a description of the valuation process used and qualitative details about the sensitivity of the measurements. In addition, for items not carried at fair value but for which fair value is disclosed, entities will be required to disclose the level within the fair value hierarchy that applies to the fair value measurement disclosed. This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s fair value measurements, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
ASU No. 2011-03, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements. In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-03, which amends the sale accounting requirement concerning a transferor’s ability to repurchase transferred financial assets even in the event of default by the transferee, which typically is facilitated in a repurchase agreement by the presence of a collateral maintenance provision. Specifically, the level of cash collateral received by a transferor will no longer be relevant in determining whether a repurchase agreement constitutes a sale. As a result of this amendment, more repurchase agreements will be treated as secured financings rather than sales. This ASU is effective prospectively for new transfers and existing transactions that are modified in the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. Because essentially all repurchase agreements entered into by the Company have historically been deemed to constitute secured financing transactions, this amendment is expected to have no impact on the Company’s characterization of such transactions and therefore is not expected to have any impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
ASU No. 2011-02, Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor's Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-02, which is intended to clarify the FASB’s views on the conditions under which a loan modification should be deemed to be a troubled debt restructuring and could result in the determination that more loan modifications meet that definition. Loans which constitute troubled debt restructurings are considered impaired when calculating the allowance for loan losses and are subject to additional disclosures pursuant to ASU No. 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, which becomes effective concurrent with ASU No. 2011-02. The amendment is effective for the first interim or annual period ending after June 15, 2011 and must be applied retrospectively to loan modifications occurring on or after the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company has reviewed the loan modifications it makes in light of this guidance, and has determined that this amendment is not expected to result in any change to the characterization of the Company's current loan modification programs. The amendment is therefore not expected to impact the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the 2010 consolidated audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. When necessary, reclassifications have been made to prior period data throughout the following discussion and analysis for purposes of comparability. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which may be identified by the use of such words as “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “should”, “planned”, “estimated” and “potential”. Examples of forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, estimates with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of Unity Bancorp, Inc. that are subject to various factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from these estimates. These factors include, in addition to those items contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K under Item IA-Risk Factors, as updated by our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, the following: changes in general, economic, and market conditions, legislative and regulatory conditions, or the development of an interest rate environment that adversely affects Unity Bancorp, Inc.’s interest-rate spread or other income anticipated from operations and investments.
Overview
Unity Bancorp, Inc., (the “Parent Company”), is incorporated in New Jersey and is registered as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, Unity Bank (the “Bank” or, when consolidated with the Parent Company, the “Company”) was granted a charter by the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance and commenced operations on September 13, 1991. The Bank provides a full range of commercial and retail banking services through 16 branch offices located in Hunterdon, Somerset, Middlesex, Union and Warren counties in New Jersey, and Northampton County in Pennsylvania. These services include the acceptance of demand, savings, and time deposits and the extension of consumer, real estate, Small Business Administration and other commercial credits. Unity Investment Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank, is used to hold part of the Bank’s investment portfolio.
Unity (NJ) Statutory Trust II is a statutory business trust and wholly owned subsidiary of Unity Bancorp, Inc. On July 24, 2006, the Trust issued $10.0 million of trust preferred securities to investors. Unity (NJ) Statutory Trust III is a statutory business trust and wholly owned subsidiary of Unity Bancorp, Inc. On December 19, 2006, the Trust issued $5.0 million of trust preferred securities to investors. These floating rate securities are treated as subordinated debentures on the Company’s financial statements. However, they qualify as Tier I Capital for regulatory capital compliance purposes, subject to certain limitations. The Company does not consolidate the accounts and related activity of any of its business trust subsidiaries.
Earnings Summary
Net income available to common shareholders totaled $249 thousand, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, compared to $302 thousand, or $0.04 per diluted share for the same period a year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, net income available to common shareholders equaled $85 thousand or $.01 per diluted share compared to $677 thousand, or $.09 per diluted share for the same period a year ago.
Net income available to common shareholders for both periods was adversely impacted by the Company’s decision during the second quarter to close two of its underperforming branches (Colonia, NJ and Springfield, NJ). The closures will take place in the third quarter. As a result of this decision, $215 thousand in residual lease and fixed asset disposal expenses were realized in the second quarter. Excluding these expenses, net income available to common shareholders for the three month period ending June 30, 2011, would have been $399 thousand or $.05 per diluted share. For the six month period, net income available to common shareholders would have been $236 thousand or $.03 per diluted share.
We continue to be impacted by the state of the economy and the impact the recession has had on our borrowers. Consequently we have focused on credit quality and capital management. Our performance continues to be challenged by credit quality concerns: Nonperforming assets rose from year-end levels, our provision for loan losses increased and the cost of loan collection and other real estate owned (“OREO”) property expenses are elevated. However, we have experienced continued net interest margin improvement, core deposit growth and the Company remains well capitalized.
Our quarterly and six month performance ratios may be found in the table below.

Net Interest Income
The primary source of income for the Company is net interest income, the difference between the interest earned on earning assets such as investments and loans, and the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Factors that impact the Company’s net interest income include the interest rate environment, the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and the competitive nature of the Company’s marketplace.
Short-term interest rates continue to remain at historically low levels and consequently, the Company has realized lower yields on earning assets and lower funding costs.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011, tax-equivalent interest income decreased $715 thousand or 6.52 percent to $10.2 million when compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease was driven by the decrease in the average volume of earning assets:
·
|
Of the $715 thousand decrease in interest income on a tax-equivalent basis, $655 thousand was attributable to the decrease in volume of average interest-earning assets and $60 thousand was attributed to reduced yields on average interest-earning assets.
|
·
|
The average volume of interest-earning assets decreased $55.3 million to $777.1 million for the second quarter of 2011 compared to $832.3 million for the same period in 2010. This was due primarily to a $28.5 million decrease in average loans and a $25.0 million decrease in average investment securities.
|
·
|
The yield on interest-earning assets remained stable for the second quarter of 2011 when compared to the second quarter of 2010.
|
Total interest expense was $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $956 thousand or 26.0 percent compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease was driven by the lower overall interest rate environment combined with the shift in deposit mix away from higher priced products and a decrease in the average volume of interest-bearing liabilities:
·
|
Of the $956 thousand decrease in interest expense, $524 thousand was due to the decrease in the volume of average interest-bearing liabilities and $432 thousand was attributed to a decrease in the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
|
·
|
Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $649.8 million for the second quarter of 2011, a decrease of $72.5 million or 10.0 percent, compared to the second quarter of 2010. The decrease in interest-bearing liabilities was a result of a decrease in average time deposits, average savings deposits and borrowed funds, partially offset by an increase in interest bearing deposits.
|
·
|
The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 37 basis points to 1.67 percent, primarily due to the repricing of deposits in a lower interest rate environment. The cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 41 basis points to 1.27 percent for the second quarter of 2011 and the cost of borrowed funds and subordinated debentures decreased 1 basis point to 4.17 percent.
|
·
|
The lower cost of funding was also attributed to a shift in the mix of deposits from higher cost time deposits to lower cost savings deposits and interest-bearing demand deposits.
|
During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, tax-equivalent net interest income amounted to $7.5 million, an increase of $241 thousand or 3.3 percent when compared to the same period in 2010. Net interest margin increased 37 basis points to 3.88 percent for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, compared to 3.51 percent for the same period in 2010. The net interest spread was 3.61 percent for the second quarter of 2011, a 37 basis point increase from 3.24 for the same period in 2010.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, tax-equivalent interest income was $20.5 million, a decrease of $2.0 million or 8.7 percent when compared to the same period in 2010.
·
|
Of the $2.0 million decrease in interest income on a tax-equivalent basis, $1.6 million was attributable to the decrease in volume of average interest-earning assets and $388 thousand was attributed to reduced yields on average interest-earning assets.
|
·
|
The average volume of interest-earning assets decreased $64.0 million to $777.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $841.5 million for the same period in 2010. This was due primarily to a $33.7 million decrease in average loans and a $29.5 million decrease in average investment securities.
|
·
|
The yield on interest-earning assets decreased 6 basis points to 5.31 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011 when compared to the same period in 2010, due to continued re-pricing in a lower overall interest rate environment. Yields on most earning assets, particularly those with variable rates, fell due to these lower market rates. There was an increase in the yield on Federal Home Loan Bank Stock, Securities HTM and SBA loans.
|
Total interest expense was $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $2.2 million or 29.0 percent compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease was driven by the lower overall interest rate environment combined with the shift in deposit mix away from higher priced products and a decrease in the average volume of interest-bearing liabilities:
·
|
Of the $2.2 million decrease in interest expense, $1.1 million was attributed to a decrease in the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities and $1.1 million was due to the decrease in the volume of average interest-bearing liabilities.
|
·
|
Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $654.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $79.0 million or 10.8 percent, compared to the same period in 2010. The decrease in interest-bearing liabilities was a result of a decrease in average time deposits, average savings deposits and borrowed funds, partially offset by an increase in interest bearing deposits.
|
·
|
The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 43 basis points to 1.69 percent, primarily due to the repricing of deposits in a lower interest rate environment. The cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 50 basis points to 1.28 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the cost of borrowed funds and subordinated debentures decreased 5 basis points to 4.19 percent.
|
·
|
The lower cost of funding was also attributed to a shift in the mix of deposits from higher cost time deposits to lower cost savings deposits and interest-bearing demand deposits.
|
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, tax-equivalent net interest income amounted to $15.1 million, an increase of $275 thousand or 1.9 percent, compared to the same period in 2010. Net interest margin increased 36 basis points to 3.90 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to 3.54 percent for the same period in 2010. The net interest spread was 3.62 percent for the six months ended June 20, 2010, a 37 basis point increase from 3.25 percent for the same period in 2010.
The following table reflects the components of net interest income, setting forth for the periods presented herein: (1) average assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity, (2) interest income earned on interest-earning assets and interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities, (3) average yields earned on interest-earning assets and average rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, (4) net interest spread (which is the average yield on interest-earning assets less the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities), and (5) net interest income/margin on average earning assets. Rates/Yields are computed on a fully tax-equivalent basis, assuming a federal income tax rate of 34 percent.

Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses totaled $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the provision for loan losses totaled $4.3 million, compared to $3.0 million for the same period in 2010. Each period’s loan loss provision is the result of management’s analysis of the loan portfolio and reflects changes in the size and composition of the portfolio, the level of net charge-offs, delinquencies, current economic conditions and other internal and external factors impacting the risk within the loan portfolio. Additional information may be found under the captions “Financial Condition-Asset Quality” and “Financial Condition - Allowance for Loan Losses and Unfunded Loan Commitments.” The current provision is considered appropriate under management’s assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income was $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $277 thousand when compared to the same period in 2010. Noninterest income was $2.7 million for the six months ended June, 30, 2011, an increase of $622 thousand compared with the same period in 2010. The increases in both periods are primarily due to higher gains on the sale of SBA loans and increased service and loan fee income.

Changes in our noninterest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 versus the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 reflect:
·
|
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, branch fee income, which consists of deposit service charge and overdraft fees, increased 1.8 percent compared to prior year’s quarter, as increased overdraft activity offset reduced deposit account service charges. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, branch fee income decreased 1.7 percent to $680 thousand due to lower deposit account service charge activity.
|
·
|
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, service and loan fee income increased $139 thousand and $173 thousand, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increases were primarily due to higher levels of payoff and other processing related fees.
|
·
|
Net gains on SBA loan sales amounted to $399 thousand on $4.9 million in sales and $510 thousand on $6.0 million in sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, compared to net gains of $147 thousand on $1.4 million in sales during the same periods in 2010.
|
·
|
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, gains on the sale of mortgage loans decreased $25 thousand and $2 thousand, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the prior year. The decreases were directly related to a lower volume of mortgage loans originated. Sales of mortgage loans totaled $6.0 million and $15.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.
|
·
|
In December 2004, the Company purchased $5.0 million of bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”). An additional $2.5 million was purchased in January 2010 to offset the rising costs of employee benefits. The increase in the cash surrender value of the BOLI was $74 thousand and $78 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010. The increase in the cash surrender value of the BOLI was $147 thousand $151 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010.
|
·
|
For the three months ended June 30, 2011 there were net realized losses on the sales of securities of $39 thousand, while there were net realized gains on the sale of securities of $4 thousand during the same period in 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, net realized gains on sales of securities amounted to $87 thousand and $8 thousand, respectively. For additional information, see Note 7 - Securities.

Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense was $6.2 million for the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $207 thousand or 3.4 percent over the second quarter of 2010. Total noninterest expense was $12.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $425 thousand or 3.5 percent over the same periods in 2010.
Noninterest expense for both periods was adversely impacted by Unity's decision during the second quarter to close two of its underperforming branches (Colonia, NJ and Springfield, NJ) in the third quarter. As a result of this decision, $215 thousand in residual lease and fixed asset disposal expenses were realized.

|
Changes in noninterest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 versus the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 reflect:
·
|
Compensation and benefits expense, the largest component of noninterest expense, increased $58 thousand and $116 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2010. This increase is attributed to higher employee medical benefit costs and increased residential mortgage commissions.
|
·
|
Occupancy expense increased $219 thousand and $261 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2010, primarily due to branch closure related expenses and snow removal expenses.
|
·
|
Processing and communications expenses decreased $18 thousand and $36 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2010. The quarter over quarter decrease was primarily due to decreased items processing and armored car costs. The year over year decreases were primarily due to decreases in data processing costs, armored car costs and coin and currency costs.
|
·
|
Furniture and equipment expense decreased $37 thousand and $76 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2010. This decrease was primarily due to lower depreciation expenses and equipment lease expense, partially offset by losses on the disposal of equipment at the two branches being closed.
|
·
|
Professional service fees remained relatively flat for the three months ended June 30, 2011 when compared to the same period in 2010 and decreased $34 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2011, when compared to the same period in 2010, due to lower consulting, audit and legal fees.
|
·
|
Loan collection costs decreased $42 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and remained relatively flat for the six months ended June 30, 2011, when compared to the same periods in 2010. Quarter over quarter, the decrease was primarily due to a decrease in loan collection costs and forced place insurance, partially offset by increased appraisal and loan legal expenses.
|
·
|
OREO expenses increased $66 thousand and $258 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2010, due to increased OREO carrying costs and valuation adjustments on OREO properties.
|
·
|
Deposit insurance expense decreased $38 thousand and $49 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2010. These decreases are primarily due to a lower overall deposit base.
|
·
|
Advertising expense decreased $36 thousand and $25 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2010. These decreases are primarily due to reduced promotional items and seasonal media related costs.
|
·
|
Other expenses increased $42 thousand and $12 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2010.
|
Income Tax Expense
For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $277 thousand, compared to an income tax expense of $212 thousand for the same period a year ago. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $129 thousand, compared to an income tax expense of $397 thousand for the same period a year ago. The current 2011 tax provision represents an effective tax rate of approximately 13.0 percent as compared to 21.7 percent for the prior year. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2011 includes the reversal of $150 thousand of a valuation reserve for deferred taxes related to the net operating loss carry-forward deferred tax asset. Excluding this valuation adjustment, our effective tax rate would have been 28.1 percent.
Financial Condition at June 30, 2011
Total assets decreased $12.2 million or 1.5 percent, to $806.2 million at June 30, 2011, compared to $818.4 million at December 31, 2010. This decrease was primarily due to a $13.1 million decrease in securities and an $831 thousand decrease in loans, partially offset by an increase of 2.4 million in cash and cash equivalents. Total deposits decreased $13.6 million and borrowed funds remained stable. Total shareholders’ equity increased $2.1 million over year-end 2010. These fluctuations are discussed in further detail in the paragraphs that follow.
Investment Securities Portfolio
The Company’s securities portfolio consists of available for sale (“AFS”) and held to maturity (“HTM”) investments. Management determines the appropriate security classification of available for sale or held to maturity at the time of purchase. The investment securities portfolio is maintained for asset-liability management purposes, as well as for liquidity and earnings purposes.
AFS securities are investments carried at fair value that may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for other business purposes. Activity in this portfolio is undertaken primarily to manage liquidity and interest rate risk, to take advantage of market conditions that create economically attractive returns and as an additional source of earnings. AFS securities consist primarily of obligations of U.S. Government sponsored entities, obligations of state and political subdivisions, mortgage-backed securities, trust preferred securities and equity securities.
HTM securities, which are carried at amortized cost, are investments for which there is the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. The portfolio is comprised of obligations of U.S. Government sponsored entities, obligations of state and political subdivisions, mortgage-backed securities and trust preferred securities.
AFS securities totaled $101.9 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $5.3 million or 4.9 percent, compared to $107.1 million at December 31, 2010. This net decrease was the result of the following:
· $18.9 million in principal payments, maturities and called bonds,
· $22.7 million in purchases of collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”), agencies, structured agencies, and corporate bonds
· $10.1 million in sales net of realized gains, which consisted primarily of mortgage-backed securities and CMOs,
· $312 thousand in net amortization of premiums, and
· $1.3 million of appreciation in the market value of the portfolio. At June 30, 2011, the portfolio had a net unrealized gain of $2 million compared to a net unrealized gain of $733 thousand at December 31, 2010. These unrealized gains (losses) are reflected net of tax in shareholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
The average balance of AFS securities amounted to $104.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $125.8 million for the same period in 2010. The average yield earned on the AFS portfolio decreased 21 basis points, to 3.54 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011, from 3.75 percent for the same period in the prior year. The weighted average repricing of AFS securities, adjusted for prepayments, amounted to 2.9 years at June 30, 2011, compared to 2.5 years at December 31, 2010.
At June 30, 2011, the Company’s AFS portfolio included one bank trust preferred security with a book value of $978 thousand and a fair value of $749 thousand. The Company monitors the credit worthiness of the issuer of this security quarterly. At June 30, 2011, the Company had not taken any OTTI credit loss adjustments on this security. Management will continue to monitor the performance of the security and the underlying institution for impairment.
HTM securities were $13.3 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $7.8 million or 36.9 percent, from year-end 2010. This net decrease was the result of:
· $5.6 million in principal payments
· $47 thousand in net accretion of discounts, and
· $2.2 million in sales, net of realized gains which consisted of CMO's due to declines in their credit ratings.
As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair value of HTM securities was $13.9 million and $21.4 million, respectively. The average balance of HTM securities amounted to $17.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $25.3 million for the same period in 2010. The average yield earned on HTM securities increased 75 basis points, to 5.57 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011, from 4.82 percent for the same period in 2010. The weighted average repricing of HTM securities, adjusted for prepayments, amounted to 6.35 years and 3.45 years at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Securities with a carrying value of $73.8 million and $63.4 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, were pledged to secure Government deposits, secure other borrowings and for other purposes required or permitted by law.
Approximately 87 percent of the total investment portfolio had a fixed rate of interest at June 30, 2011.
Loan Portfolio
The loan portfolio, which represents the Company’s largest asset group, is a significant source of both interest and fee income. The portfolio consists of SBA, SBA 504, commercial, residential mortgage and consumer loans. Different segments of the loan portfolio are subject to differing levels of credit and interest rate risk.
Total loans decreased $831 thousand or 0.1 percent to $615.1 million at June 30, 2011, compared to $615.9 million at year-end 2010. The decline occurred in all loan types except, commercial, residential mortgage, and SBA held for sale loans as a direct result of the economic downturn, low consumer and business confidence levels, and reduced loan demand. Creditworthy borrowers are cutting back on capital expenditures or postponing their purchases in hopes that the economy will improve. In general, banks are lending less because consumers and businesses are demanding less credit.
The following table sets forth the classification of loans by major category, including unearned fees, deferred costs and excluding the allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:
Average loans decreased $33.7 million or 5.2 percent from $648.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, to $615.0 million for the same period in 2011. The decrease in average loans was due to declines in all portfolio types. The yield on the overall loan portfolio fell 9 basis points to 5.92 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to 6.01 percent for the same period in the prior year. This decrease was the result of variable rate, prime-based loan products such as SBA loans repricing lower as rates remained low throughout 2010 and 2011. The prime rate has remained at 3.25 percent since December 2008.
SBA loans, on which the SBA provides guarantees of up to 90 percent of the principal balance, are considered a higher risk loan product for the Company than its other loan products. The Company’s SBA loans are generally sold in the secondary market with the nonguaranteed portion held in the portfolio as a loan held for investment. During the third and fourth quarters of 2008, as a result of the significantly reduced premiums on sale and the ongoing credit crisis, the Company closed all SBA production offices outside of its New Jersey and Pennsylvania primary trade area. Consequently, the volume of new SBA loans and gains on SBA loans has declined.
SBA 7(a) loans held for sale, carried at the lower of cost or market, amounted to $13.8 million at June 30, 2011, an increase of $3.4 million from $10.4 million at December 31, 2010. SBA 7(a) loans held to maturity amounted to $71.4 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $4.3 million from $75.7 million at December 31, 2010. The yield on SBA loans, which are generally floating and adjust quarterly to the Prime rate, was 5.66 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to 5.61 percent for the same period in the prior year.
At June 30, 2011, SBA 504 loans totaled $55.8 million, a decrease of $8.5 million from $64.3 million at December 31, 2010. The SBA 504 program consists of real estate backed commercial mortgages where the Company has the first mortgage and the SBA has the second mortgage on the property. Generally, the Company has a 50 percent loan to value ratio on SBA 504 program loans. The yield on SBA 504 fell 46 basis points to 5.96 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from 6.42 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2010 due to the reversal of accrued interest on loans placed into nonaccrual status.
Commercial loans are generally made in the Company’s market place for the purpose of providing working capital, financing the purchase of equipment, inventory or commercial real estate and for other business purposes. These loans amounted to $287.8 million at June 30, 2011, an increase of $6.6 million from year-end 2010. The yield on commercial loans was 6.32 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to 6.35 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Residential mortgage loans consist of loans secured by 1 to 4 family residential properties. These loans amounted to $134.8 million at June 30, 2011, an increase of $6.4 million from year-end 2010. New loan volume during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was partially offset by the sale of mortgage loans totaling $15.7 million. The yield on residential mortgages was 5.60 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to 5.85 percent for the same period in 2010.
Consumer loans consist of home equity loans and loans for the purpose of financing the purchase of consumer goods, home improvements, and other personal needs, and are generally secured by the personal property being purchased. These loans amounted to $51.5 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $4.4 million from December 31, 2010. The yield on consumer loans was 4.95 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.
As of June 30, 2011, approximately 11.1 percent of the Company’s total loan portfolio consists of loans to various unrelated and unaffiliated borrowers in the Hotel/Motel industry. Such loans are collateralized by the underlying real property financed and/or partially guaranteed by the SBA. The Company is currently no longer financing hotel/motel properties. There are no other concentrations of loans to any borrowers or group of borrowers exceeding 10 percent of the total loan portfolio. There are no foreign loans in the portfolio. As a preferred SBA lender, a portion of the SBA portfolio is to borrowers outside the Company’s lending area. However, during late 2008, the Company withdrew from SBA lending outside of its primary trade area, but continues to offer SBA loan products as an additional credit product within its primary trade area.
In the normal course of business, the Company may originate loan products whose terms could give rise to additional credit risk. Interest-only loans, loans with high loan-to-value ratios, construction loans with payments made from interest reserves and multiple loans supported by the same collateral (e.g. home equity loans) are examples of such products. However, these products are not material to the Company’s financial position and are closely managed via credit controls that mitigate their additional inherent risk. Management does not believe that these products create a concentration of credit risk in the Company’s loan portfolio. The Company does not have any option adjustable rate mortgage (“ARM”) loans.
The majority of the Company’s loans are secured by real estate. The declines in the market values of real estate in the Company’s trade area impact the value of the collateral securing its loans. This could lead to greater losses in the event of defaults on loans secured by real estate. Specifically, as of June 30, 2011, 90 percent of SBA 7(a) loans are secured by commercial or residential real estate and 10 percent by other non-real estate collateral. Commercial real estate secures all SBA 504 loans. Approximately 98 percent of consumer loans are secured by owner-occupied residential real estate, with the other 2 percent secured by automobiles or other. The detailed allocation of the Company’s commercial loan portfolio collateral as of June 30, 2011 is shown in the table below:

Asset Quality
Inherent in the lending function is credit risk, which is the possibility a borrower may not perform in accordance with the contractual terms of their loan. A borrower’s inability to pay their obligations according to the contractual terms can create the risk of past due loans and, ultimately, credit losses, especially on collateral deficient loans. The Company minimizes its credit risk by loan diversification and adhering to strict credit administration policies and procedures. Due diligence on loans begins when we initiate contact regarding a loan with a borrower. Documentation, including a borrower’s credit history, materials establishing the value and liquidity of potential collateral, the purpose of the loan, the source of funds for repayment of the loan, and other factors, are analyzed before a loan is submitted for approval. The loan portfolio is then subject to on-going internal reviews for credit quality, as well as independent credit reviews by an outside firm.
The risk of loss is difficult to quantify and is subject to fluctuations in collateral values, general economic conditions and other factors. The current state of the economy and the downturn in the real estate market have resulted in increased loan delinquencies and defaults. In some cases, these factors have also resulted in significant impairment to the value of loan collateral. The Company values its collateral through the use of appraisals, broker price opinions, and knowledge of its local market. In response to the credit risk in its portfolio, the Company has increased staffing in its credit monitoring department and increased efforts in the collection and analysis of borrowers’ financial statements and tax returns.
Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest (nonaccrual loans) as a result of principal or interest being in default for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt. When a loan is classified as nonaccrual, interest accruals discontinue and all past due interest previously recognized as income is reversed and charged against current period income. Generally, until the loan becomes current, any payments received from the borrower are applied to outstanding principal, until such time as management determines that the financial condition of the borrower and other factors merit recognition of a portion of such payments as interest income. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest are not included in nonperforming loans. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing generally represent loans that are well collateralized and in a continuing process that are expected to result in repayment or restoration to current status.
The following table sets forth information concerning nonperforming loans and nonperforming assets at each of the periods presented:

The current state of the economy impacts the Company’s level of delinquent and nonperforming loans by putting a strain on the Company’s borrowers and their ability to pay their loan obligations. Unemployment rates continue to be at elevated levels and businesses are reluctant to hire. Unemployment and flat wages have caused consumer spending and demand for goods to decline, impacting the profitability of small businesses. Consequently, the Company’s nonperforming loans remain at an elevated level.
Nonperforming loans were $25.1 million at June 30,2011, a $3.4 million increase from $21.7 million at year-end 2010 and a $1.0 million decrease from $26.1 million at June 30, 2010. Since year end 2010, nonperforming loans increased in all loan categories, except for SBA and residential mortgage loans. Included in nonperforming loans at June 30, 2011, are approximately $2.9 million of loans guaranteed by the SBA, compared to $2.7 million at December 31, 2010 and $1.4 million at June 30, 2010. In addition, there were $2.9 million, $374 thousand, and $2.8 million in loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at June 30, 2011, December 31, 2010, and June 30, 2010, respectively.
Other real estate owned (“OREO”) properties totaled $2.7 million at June 30, 2011, an increase of $376 thousand from $2.3 million at year-end 2010 and a $1.0 million decrease from $3.7 million at June 30, 2010. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company took title to seven properties totaling $1.4 million and recorded valuation adjustments of $754 thousand on seven existing properties. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, there were sales of three OREO properties.
Potential problem loans are those loans where information about possible credit problems of borrowers causes management to have doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with loan repayment terms. These loans are not included in nonperforming loans as they continue to perform. Potential problem loans totaled $3.4 million at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $2.1 million from $5.5 million at December 31, 2010. The decrease is due to the removal of $7.3 million during the period , partially offset by the addition of $5.3 million.
The Company has defined impaired loans to be all nonperforming loans and troubled debt restructurings. Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) occur when a creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to a debtor’s financial condition, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider, such as a below market interest rate, extending the maturity of a loan, or a combination of both. At June 30, 2011, there were sixteen loans totaling $17.5 million that were classified as TDRs by the Company and are deemed impaired, compared to fifteen such loans totaling $14.1 million at December 31, 2010 and four such loans totaling $5.6 million at June 30, 2010. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, there were seven loans totaling $9.0 million classified as TDRs, six loans totaling $3.1 million were transferred to nonaccrual status and one loan was charged down $2.5 million. TDRs are not included in the nonperforming or potential problem loan figures listed above, as they continue to perform under their modified terms.
Allowance for Loan Losses and Unfunded Loan Commitments
Management reviews the level of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis. The standardized methodology used to assess the adequacy of the allowance includes the allocation of specific and general reserves. Specific reserves are made to individual impaired loans, which have been defined to include all nonperforming loans and troubled debt restructurings. The general reserve is set based upon a representative average historical net charge-off rate adjusted for certain environmental factors such as: delinquency and impairment trends, charge-off and recovery trends, volume and loan term trends, risk and underwriting policy trends, staffing and experience changes, national and local economic trends, industry conditions and credit concentration changes.
Beginning in the third quarter of 2009, when calculating the five-year historical net charge-off rate, the Company weights the past three years more heavily due to the higher amount of charge-offs experienced during those years. All of the environmental factors are ranked and assigned a basis points value based on the following scale: low, low moderate, moderate, high moderate, and high risk. The factors are evaluated separately for each type of loan. For example, commercial loans are broken down further into commercial and industrial loans, commercial mortgages, construction loans, etc. Each type of loan is risk weighted for each environmental factor based on its individual characteristics.
According to the Company’s policy, a loss (“charge-off”) is to be recognized and charged to the allowance for loan losses as soon as a loan is recognized as uncollectable. All credits which are 90 days past due must be analyzed for the Company's ability to collect on the credit. Once a loss is known to exist, the charge-off approval process is immediately expedited.
Beginning in 2010, the Company significantly increased its loan loss provision in response to the inherent credit risk within its loan portfolio and changes to some of the environmental factors noted above. The inherent credit risk was evidenced by the increase in delinquent and nonperforming loans in recent quarters, as the downturn in the economy impacted borrowers’ ability to pay and factors, such as a weakened housing market, eroded the value of underlying collateral. In addition, net charge-offs are higher than normal, as the Company is proactively addressing these issues.
The allowance for loan losses totaled $16.0 million, $14.4 million, and $13.9 million at June 30, 2011, December 31, 2010, and June 30, 2010, respectively, with resulting allowance to total loan ratios of 2.60 percent, 2.33 percent, and 2.19 percent, respectively. Net charge-offs amounted to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $1.8 million for the same period in 2010. Net charge-offs amounted to $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $3.0 million for the same period in 2010. Net charge-offs to average loan ratios are shown in the table below for each major loan category.

In addition to the allowance for loan losses, the Company maintains an allowance for unfunded loan commitments. Commitments to extend credit represent arrangements to lend funds or provide liquidity subject to specified contractual conditions. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, a $66 thousand commitment reserve was reported on the balance sheet as an “other liability”. Management determines this amount using estimates of future loan funding and losses related to those credit exposures.
Deposits
Deposits, which include noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing demand deposits, savings deposits and time deposits, are the primary source of the Company’s funds. The Company offers a variety of products designed to attract and retain customers, with primary focus on building and expanding relationships. The Company continues to focus on establishing a comprehensive relationship with business borrowers, seeking deposits as well as lending relationships.
Total deposits decreased $13.6 million to $641.2 million at June 30, 2011, from $654.8 million at December 31, 2010. These decreases in deposits were due to decreases of $13.4 million and $11.8 million in time deposits and interest-bearing demand deposits, respectively, partially offset by increases of $8.3 million and $3.3 million in savings deposits and noninterest-bearing demand deposits respectively. The decline in time deposits was due to the planned run off of a maturing high rate promotion done at the end of 2008 to bolster liquidity.
The mix of deposits shifted during the quarter as the concentration of time deposits fell from 27.5 percent of total deposits at December 31, 2010 to 26.1 percent of total deposits at June 30, 2011, in turn causing the concentration of savings deposits to increase.
Borrowed Funds and Subordinated Debentures
Borrowed funds consist primarily of fixed rate advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of New York and repurchase agreements. These borrowings are used as a source of liquidity or to fund asset growth not supported by deposit generation. Residential mortgages and investment securities collateralize the borrowings from the FHLB, while investment securities are pledged against the repurchase agreements.
Borrowed funds and subordinated debentures totaled $90.5 million at both June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and are broken down in the following table:

At June 30, 2011, the Company had $66.7 million of additional credit available at the FHLB. Pledging additional collateral in the form of 1 to 4 family residential mortgages or investment securities can increase the line with the FHLB.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
The principal objectives of the asset and liability management function are to establish prudent risk management guidelines, evaluate and control the level of interest-rate risk in balance sheet accounts, determine the level of appropriate risk given the business focus, operating environment, capital, and liquidity requirements, and actively manage risk within the Board approved guidelines. The Company seeks to reduce the vulnerability of the operations to changes in interest rates, and actions in this regard are taken under the guidance of the Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”) of the Board of Directors. The ALCO reviews the maturities and re-pricing of loans, investments, deposits and borrowings, cash flow needs, current market conditions, and interest rate levels.
The Company utilizes Modified Duration of Equity and Economic Value of Portfolio Equity (“EVPE”) models to measure the impact of longer-term asset and liability mismatches beyond two years. The modified duration of equity measures the potential price risk of equity to changes in interest rates. A longer modified duration of equity indicates a greater degree of risk to rising interest rates. Because of balance sheet optionality, an EVPE analysis is also used to dynamically model the present value of asset and liability cash flows with rate shocks of 200 basis points. The economic value of equity is likely to be different as interest rates change. Like the simulation model, results falling outside prescribed ranges require action by the ALCO. The Company’s variance in the economic value of equity, as a percentage of assets with rate shocks of 200 basis points at June 30, 2011, is a decline of 1.01 percent in a rising-rate environment and a decline of 0.89 percent in a falling-rate environment. The variances in the EVPE at June 30, 2011 are within the Board-approved guidelines of +/- 3.00 percent. At December 31, 2010, the economic value of equity as a percentage of assets with rate shocks of 200 basis points was a decline of 0.77 percent in a rising-rate environment and a decline of 0.83 percent in a falling-rate environment.
Operating, Investing and Financing
The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows present the changes in cash from operating, investing and financing activities. At June 30, 2011, the balance of cash and cash equivalents was $46.3 million, an increase of $2.4 million from December 31, 2010.
Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $1.6 million and $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The primary sources of funds were net income from operations and adjustments to net income, such as the provision for loan losses, depreciation and amortization, and proceeds from the sale of loans held for sale, partially offset by originations of SBA and mortgage loans held for sale and deferred taxes.
Net cash provided by investing activities amounted to $14.5 million and $38.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The cash provided by investing activities was primarily a result of sales, maturities and paydowns on securities, loan paydowns and proceeds from the sale of other real estate owned, partially offset by the purchase of securities and equipment.
Net cash used by financing activities amounted to $13.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, while financing activities used $62.8 million in net cash during the six months ended June 30, 2010. The cash used by financing activities was primarily due to the decrease in the Company’s deposit base.
Liquidity
The Company’s liquidity is a measure of its ability to fund loans, withdrawals or maturities of deposits and other cash outflows in a cost-effective manner.
Parent Company
Generally, the Parent Company’s cash is used for the payment of operating expenses and cash dividends on the preferred stock issued to the U.S. Treasury. The principal sources of funds for the Parent Company are dividends paid by the Bank. The Parent Company only pays expenses that are specifically for the benefit of the Parent Company. Other than its investment in the Bank, Unity Statutory Trust II and Unity Statutory Trust III, the Parent Company does not actively engage in other transactions or business. The majority of expenses paid by the Parent Company are related to Unity Statutory Trust II and Unity Statutory Trust III.
At June 30, 2011, the Parent Company had $3.9 million in cash and $103 thousand in marketable securities valued at fair value compared to $4.1 million in cash and $97 thousand in marketable securities at December 31, 2010. The decrease in cash at the Parent Company was primarily due to the payment of cash dividends on preferred stock.
Consolidated Bank
The principal sources of funds at the Bank are deposits, scheduled amortization and prepayments of loan and investment principal, sales and maturities of investment securities and funds provided by operations. While scheduled loan payments and maturing investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.
Total FHLB borrowings amounted to $60.0 million and third party repurchase agreements totaled $15.0 million as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. At June 30, 2011, $66.7 million was available for additional borrowings from the FHLB. Pledging additional collateral in the form of 1 to 4 family residential mortgages or investment securities can increase the line with the FHLB. An additional source of liquidity is the securities available for sale portfolio and SBA loans held for sale portfolio, which amounted to $101.8 million and $13.8 million, respectively, at June 30, 2011.
As of June 30, 2011, deposits included $37.6 million of Government deposits, as compared to $36.3 million at year-end 2010. These deposits are generally short in duration and are very sensitive to price competition. The Company believes that the current level of these types of deposits is appropriate. Included in the portfolio were $33.2 million of deposits from six municipalities. The withdrawal of these deposits, in whole or in part, would not create a liquidity shortfall for the Company.
The Company was committed to advance approximately $67.9 million to its borrowers as of June 30, 2011, compared to $66.0 million at December 31, 2010. At June 30, 2011, $19.6 million of these commitments expire after one year, compared to $17.2 million at December 31, 2010. At June 30, 2011, the Company had $2.0 million in standby letters of credit compared to $1.5 million at December 31, 2010, which are included in the commitments amount noted above. The estimated fair value of these guarantees is not significant. The Company believes it has the necessary liquidity to honor all commitments. Many of these commitments will expire and never be funded. At June 30, 2011 approximately 6 percent of these commitments were for SBA loans, which may be sold in the secondary market, compared to 12 percent at December 31, 2010.
Regulatory Capital
A significant measure of the strength of a financial institution is its capital base. Federal regulators have classified and defined capital into the following components: (1) tier 1 capital, which includes tangible shareholders’ equity for common stock, qualifying preferred stock and certain qualifying hybrid instruments, and (2) tier 2 capital, which includes a portion of the allowance for loan losses, subject to limitations, certain qualifying long-term debt, preferred stock and hybrid instruments, which do not qualify for tier 1 capital. The parent company and its subsidiary bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by banking regulators. Quantitative measures of capital adequacy include the leverage ratio (tier 1 capital as a percentage of tangible assets), tier 1 risk-based capital ratio (tier 1 capital as a percent of risk-weighted assets) and total risk-based capital ratio (total risk-based capital as a percent of total risk-weighted assets).
Minimum capital levels are regulated by risk-based capital adequacy guidelines, which require the Company and the Bank to maintain certain capital as a percentage of assets and certain off-balance sheet items adjusted for predefined credit risk factors (risk-weighted assets). Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines. However, prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies. At a minimum, tier 1 capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets of 4 percent and combined tier 1 and tier 2 capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets of 8 percent must be maintained.
In addition to the risk-based guidelines, regulators require that a bank, which meets the regulator’s highest performance and operation standards, maintain a minimum leverage ratio of 3 percent. For those banks with higher levels of risk or that are experiencing or anticipating significant growth, the minimum leverage ratio will be proportionately increased. Minimum leverage ratios for each institution are evaluated through the ongoing regulatory examination process.
The Company’s capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following table.

Shareholders’ Equity
Shareholders’ equity increased $2.1 million to $72.2 million at June 30, 2011 compared to $70.1 million at December 31, 2010, due to net income of $863 thousand, $814 thousand appreciation in the net unrealized gains on available for sale securities, $159 thousand appreciation in net unrealized gains on cash flow hedge derivatives, and $807 thousand from the issuance of common stock under employee benefit plans, partially offset by $521 thousand in dividends accrued on preferred stock. The issuance of common stock under employee benefit plans includes nonqualified stock options and restricted stock expense related entries, employee option exercises and the tax benefit of options exercised.
During the first quarter, the Company retired approximately 425 thousand shares of Treasury Stock. The associated cost of $4.2 million was allocated between common stock and retained earnings.
On October 3, 2008, Congress passed the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (“EESA”), which provided the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury with broad authority to implement certain actions to help restore stability and liquidity to the U.S. markets. One of the programs resulting from the EESA was the Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”) which provided direct equity investment of perpetual preferred stock by the U.S. Treasury in qualified financial institutions. This program was voluntary and requires an institution to comply with several restrictions and provisions, including limits on executive compensation, stock redemptions, and declaration of dividends. The perpetual preferred stock has a dividend rate of 5 percent per year until the fifth anniversary of the Treasury investment and a dividend of 9 percent thereafter. The Company received an investment in perpetual preferred stock of $20.6 million on December 5, 2008.
As part of the CPP, the Company’s future ability to pay cash dividends is limited for so long as the Treasury holds the preferred stock. As so limited the Company may not increase its quarterly cash dividend above $0.05 per share, the quarterly rate in effect at the time the CPP program was announced, without the prior approval of the Treasury. The Company did not declare or pay any dividends during the six months ended June 30, 2011. The Company is currently preserving capital and will resume paying dividends when earnings and credit quality improve.
The Company has suspended its share repurchase program, as required by the CPP. On October 21, 2002, the Company authorized the repurchase of up to 10% of its outstanding common stock. The amount and timing of purchases would be dependent upon a number of factors, including the price and availability of the Company’s shares, general market conditions and competing alternate uses of funds. There were no shares repurchased during the three month period ended June 30, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had repurchased a total of 556 thousand shares, of which 131 thousand shares have been retired, leaving 153 thousand shares remaining to be repurchased under the plan when it is reinstated.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company has stand alone derivative financial instruments in the form of interest rate swap agreements, which derive their value from underlying interest rates. These transactions involve both credit and market risk. The notional amounts are amounts on which calculations, payments, and the value of the derivatives are based. Notional amounts do not represent direct credit exposures. Direct credit exposure is limited to the net difference between the calculated amounts to be received and paid, if any. Such difference, which represents the fair value of the derivative instruments, is reflected on the Company’s balance sheet as other assets or other liabilities.
The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to these agreements. The Company controls the credit risk of its financial contracts through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures, and does not expect any counterparties to fail their obligations. The Company deals only with primary dealers.
Derivative instruments are generally either negotiated over the counter (“OTC”) contracts or standardized contracts executed on a recognized exchange. Negotiated OTC derivative contracts are generally entered into between two counterparties that negotiate specific agreement terms, including the underlying instrument, amount, exercise prices and maturity.
Risk Management Policies – Hedging Instruments
The primary focus of the Company’s asset/liability management program is to monitor the sensitivity of the Company’s net portfolio value and net income under varying interest rate scenarios to take steps to control its risks. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the effectiveness of entering into any derivative agreement by measuring the cost of such an agreement in relation to the reduction in net portfolio value and net income volatility within an assumed range of interest rates.
Interest Rate Risk Management – Cash Flow Hedging Instruments
The Company has long-term variable rate debt as a source of funds for use in the Company’s lending and investment activities and for other general business purposes. These debt obligations expose the Company to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. If interest rates increase, interest expense increases. Conversely, if interest rates decrease, interest expense decreases. Management believes it is prudent to limit the variability of a portion of its interest payments and, therefore, hedged a portion of its variable-rate interest payments. To meet this objective, management entered into interest rate swap agreements whereby the Company receives variable interest rate payments and makes fixed interest rate payments during the contract period.
At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the information pertaining to outstanding interest rate swap agreements used to hedge variable rate debt was as follows:

These agreements provide for the Company to receive payments at a variable rate determined by a specific index (three-month LIBOR) in exchange for making payments at a fixed rate.
At June 30, 2011, the net unrealized loss relating to interest rate swaps was recorded as a derivative liability. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments of the variability of cash flows associated with long-term debt are reported in other comprehensive income. The net spread between the fixed rate of interest which is paid and the variable interest received is classified in interest expense as a yield adjustment in the same period in which the related interest on the long-term debt affects earnings.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The financial statements, and notes thereto, presented elsewhere herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time and due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the operations. Unlike most industrial companies, nearly all the Company’s assets and liabilities are monetary. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company is subject to other legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. The Company currently is not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that it believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, or the results of the operation of the Company.
Item 1.A. Risk Factors
Information regarding this item as of June 30, 2011 appears under the heading, “Risk Factors” within the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, except for the following risk factor, which was updated June 30, 2011.
Any downgrade of the credit rating of the debt of the United States may cause disruptions to world credit markets and may adversely affect our business.
On August 5, 2011, Standard and Poor's downgraded the United States credit rating from AAA rating to AA+. This reduction in the rating of U.S. government debt will likely cause disruption in world debt markets and may result in higher interest rates in the United States. A disruption in credit markets and accompanying volatility in market rates of interest may adversely affect our business, including negatively affecting our liquidity and net interest income.
